cogumbreirook, the bug is filled: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31652712:05
cogumbreiroso, for the time being I can use nautilus-cd-burner key, what do you guys think?12:07
cogumbreiroi'll take that as a yes :)12:16
ogramdz / Kamion, for the liveCD you should set the boolean gconf key /apps/gnome-screensaver/lock to false in the default settings ;)12:17

jbaileyLathiat: Just back.12:49
Lathiatjbailey: ah nevermind, was looking at https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/1805, turns out its a bug in the package12:52
jbaileyLathiat: Cool, so I don't need to worry about it being a subtle glibc thing?12:58
Lathiatjbyep12:58
Lathiatjbailey: they use LD_PRELOAD stuff, and __libc_connect is supposed to be the real connect, its been fixed upstream in debian12:58

\shjbailey: thx...but I learned enough about pointers in C when I coded bloody win3201:24
jbaileyI'm sure the FSF would love another Oleo maintainer. =)01:24
jbailey\sh: I tried coding in win32 C too early.  The event loop confused me, and the documentation sucked.01:24
jbailey\sh: In hindsight I get it know, but event driven programming drove me nuts. =)01:25
jbaileyI couldn't figure out how to register time based events and I didn't know threads, so I kept adding a function at the beginning of my events to do processing.01:25
jbaileyIf you wanted it to do anything you had to hit a key or move your mouse occasionally. =)01:26

jdubrob^: keep in mind though, it's not something we'd be interested in12:27

torkelugo: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/215712:28

jdubthere's not a lot of interest in doing the graphical installer on d-i work12:28
jduband not a lot of interest in using something other than d-i for the basic installer12:29
jdubit's quick and mostly painless, so not really worth the effort12:29
jdubhowever12:29
rob^it might be nice at least for the partitioning phase12:29
jdubUbuntuExpress gives us a great opportunity to do a really good graphical installer, far beyond what current basic graphical installers can do12:29
jdub(because when you have the whole desktop available to you... lots of interesting things can happen)12:30
torkelugo: upstream has released 1.4rc4, with some critical fixes, hopefully it will hit Debian unstable soon, and then I will start poking MOTUs again :-)12:31
rob^so the plan is to only have one cd that does both live and install then?12:31
jdubrob^: 12:31
jdubrob^: for mass distribution, yeah12:31
jdubrob^: but we'll have an install cd too, particularly for the server use case (and possibly even dedicated to that use case)12:31

Robot101\sh: by using IPCF in the background to do the SIP/Jabber connections02:00
Robot101\sh: then you want to make sure evolution is wired into galago, nautilus lets you send files to people, some other IM app does the chat stuff (gossip if we write it an ipcf backend?)02:01
\shRobot101: removing MSN/ICQ stuff and all propietary things..02:01
\shRobot101: gajim is state of art ;)02:01
Robot101not really, no...02:01

\shRobot101: the idea is, like google talk mentioned it, to add to jabber a sip signalling :)02:04
Robot101\sh: yes, we can trivially accomodate that. you're not thinking big enough though02:04
tsengRobot101: the network IS the computer!!!02:04
tsengerm.02:04
\shRobot101: actually, I want to have all functionality in one app...doesn't matter if you're using single apps for jabber/sip/email or using only one app like evolution to integrate all possibilties...02:05
Robot101\sh: no, that's crap. there's a reason all IM applications have completely ass UI, it's because they do a handful of totally disparate things02:05

sivangrob^: never worked for me also02:06
rob^weard02:07
Robot101sivang: http://robot101.net/files/tmp/IPCF.png02:07
Robot101sivang: you use a phone app to make calls, an IM app to do text, nautilus to send files02:07
rob^or weird even02:07
Robot101sivang: so yes02:08
Robot101sivang: and it doesn't matter what the protocol underneath is, all the presence is reported to galago and referenced with your address book02:08
Robot101sivang: we're starting with jabber and SIP02:08
\shRobot101: IM is more then text02:08
ugooh so were calling the next version dapper eh....nice...02:08
\shespecially xmpp is more then only text chat...02:08
Robot101yes you need a presence app, buddy list or so02:08
ugoreminds me of dapper dan from oh brother where art thou02:09
Robot101\sh: yes, but the jabber connection manager splits apart the services and makes them available /in the right place/02:09
\shRobot101: how do you want to incorporate xmpp video streaming? another app, or just a jabber client with support for it?02:10
=== LinuxJones [n=willy@blk-222-89-108.eastlink.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel
sivangRobot101: nice. We achive higher trivial integration, since each app has it's "net blessed" capabilities and you don't have to fire up the IM for instance, in order to be able to send files and vice versa02:10
Robot101sivang: right :)02:10
Robot101\sh: another app or an existing one, whatever takes your fancy02:10
Robot101\sh: when I say "IM app" I mean presence and text messaging. the other functionality is in other places. the connections to eg Jabber/SIP/MSN/IRC/whatever are in dbus services available across your desktop02:11
Robot101\sh: Evolution tells you if you can IM or phone or video call someone when they e-mail you02:11
Robot101\sh: in nautilus you go right click, Send File To -> Bob, and it will use Jabber or MSN or however bob's available to send files to02:12
Robot101anyway I reallly do need to go02:12
Robot101more later02:12
=== Robot101 runs off
sivangRobot101: also, if we have the lib, then every frontend author can use it up to make what he sees fit, and those can all coexist happily. tht would enable us to suit each user preference. I tend to like this.02:12
\shRobot101: think about it like this: there is no need for propietary protocols anymore...so u need to implement at least some type of xmpp client which supports several JEPs and distribute via whatever to the correct apps02:13
\shRobot101: which is an awesome goal :)02:13

=== xTina [n=xTina@dsl-084-056-131-094.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
\shjdub: the presence manager/connection manager has to deal with several propietary protocols then...so something changed for some "really kewl presence and messaging protocol" you have to work on it for every change02:22
sivang\sh: how do you really plan to solve this issue? people will continue to use the prop protocols ....and we would still have to stay on front of tracking them to keep stuff not falling02:22
\shsivang: as I said...it's a server issue...which can be solved with xmpp transports02:22
jdub\sh: via separately upgradeable plugins. but that really doesn't matter, and is not different from the current situation.02:23
jdubit's not a server issue02:23

jdubs/instance/possible instance/ :-)03:01
jbaileyjdub: No.  The kernel passes the new release string to mkinitramfs, and it doesn't have any logic to infer it.03:02
jbaileySo if there's a bug there, I don't see where it could be.03:02
jbaileyjdub: Starting next week or so, other apps will start regenerating your initramfs for you, but they'll do whichever one is pointed to by your symlink.03:04

jdubwow03:08
jdubnice one03:08
jbaileyAnd so I'm still trying to guess how it ought to be detected.03:08
=== jdub should try and sucker through some promise TX4300 support
jbaileyI *think* that the installer currently just loads ide-generic always, and that the old initrd-tools' rootfs detection went 'Hey! IDE!' and just installed the needed pieces.03:08
jbaileyPromise?  Is that the IDE Raid controller?03:09

jdubnah, sata03:10
jbailey*sigh*03:10
jbaileyThat means they're growing rather than silently going out of business.03:10
jdubthe chipset is one click above a chipset added in 2.6.13 ;-)03:10
jbaileyThe promise suckage is that it lets the OS see the underlying drives.03:11
jduboh, i don't dabble with the raid mess03:11
jbaileySo you get UUID conflicts and whatnot.03:11
jdubit's a well supported chipset family for libata though03:11
jbaileyThe solution that I heard about at OLS was that they're slowly teaching Linux about all of the different on-disk formats so that it will treat those like software raid and respect that.03:11
jbaileySo you then have a bios that can boot software raid.03:11

=== jdub isn't fond of hardware raid
jbaileyMmm, hardware raid should be faster and possibly more redundant.03:13

jbaileywasabi_: Sweet.  Is the his plan evms, or is this the evms on lvm on md1? =)06:49
harrytuttleKamion: ok thanks06:49
wasabi_evms on lvm on md06:49
jbaileyw00h0006:49
wasabi_I'm really confused about how evms handles md though, it's really causing probs06:49
wasabi_md1 : active raid1 dm-9[2]  sdc2[1] 06:49
wasabi_      48837504 blocks [2/1]  [_U] 06:49
wasabi_See, it added dm-9 just now.06:50
wasabi_WHich is really sdb106:50
wasabi_So now lvm won't think sdb1 is used by md, and will see the duplicate uuid06:50
wasabi_It seems like rebooting fixes it though.06:50
wasabi_I suspect it's because md redetects itself instead of being activated by evms06:50
wasabi_and md scans the real device nodes to do so06:51
wasabi_You know what rocks though, after the reboot into a new kernel....06:51
wasabi_my devices renumbered themselves.06:51
wasabi_probably some random udev or kernel change or something.06:51
wasabi_But everything still worked.06:51
wasabi_sdb used ot be sda and sdc used to be sdb06:52
jbaileyThe new udev (afer UVF, not for breezy) will do /dev/by-name and /dev/by-uuid as well.06:52
jbaileySo hopefully we'll never have to think about what partition, etc it thinks everything is on anymore.06:52
wasabi_We don't right now with evms06:53
wasabi_evms uses uuids and stuff to mark every device.06:53
wasabi_So they are all scanned and mapped to virtual node names.06:53
jbaileyTrue.  I have to admit evms still kinda scares me. =)06:53
wasabi_EVms itself is totally awesome.06:53
wasabi_It's the layering with other things that kinda messes around with it.06:53
wasabi_This is specifically a LVM bug that I'm having I believe.06:53
jbaileyI think perhaps I wish it were just obvious what the One True Way of doing things were. =)  Even if it's evms with it's magic plug-in based mapping, that would be fine. =)06:55
wasabi_evms really is just a good interface too.06:56
wasabi_the core of it just uses md and lvm anyways.06:56
wasabi_lvm to me seems like the One True Way.06:56
jbaileyThen what purpose does evms serve on top of that?06:57
wasabi_The interface.06:57
wasabi_And API.06:57
jbailey..06:57
wasabi_It lets you manage all those systmes in an agnostic way.06:57
jbaileyYou mean the curses interface?06:57
wasabi_evmsgui too06:57
wasabi_And easily layer and combine those different features, and keeps them in check.06:57
jbaileyAh, I haven't met evmsgui06:57
wasabi_Like it won't let you edit a md device that's used by a lvm that's exported as ext, because ext needs to be unmounted before expanding.06:58
wasabi_It knows about all that.06:58
wasabi_However it will let you expand a lvm partition that exports xfs because xfs can handle it, and it will expand xfs for you too06:58
wasabi_in teh case of ext3 it makes you umount it, then it can expand it.06:59
wasabi_All those plugins expose generic interface and stuff like "can expand" and such, and the API builds a big list of all the pieces involved in any operation and knows if it's possible or not.06:59

ograjbailey, http://www.grawert.net/edubuntu/edusplash.png08:33
ograjbailey, i think thats the one you can take :)08:33
xTinaHm. Is it on purpose that the new nvidia-glx-legacy package tries to overwrite /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 from libgl1-mesa, while at the same time depending on that package?08:36
Mithrandirit should divert it.08:36
wasabi_jbailey, it occures to me that adding evms to the init script doesn't seem like it should be done only if the evms package is installed, but if the root device is mounted on evms.08:36
MithrandirxTina: excellent observation, that probably explains another bug I've seen.08:36
infinityThe diversion hackery probably didn't get copied over from the other nvidia-glx maintainer scripts.08:38
wasabi_Or yeah, maybe if the evms package is installed. That sort of covers it anyways.08:38
infinityAt a guess.08:38
\shMithrandir: can u please apt-get install tk8.4-dev on ravel...actually I could fix ace...with good luck and thumbs up08:38
=== Treenaks [n=martijn@messy.foodfight.org] has joined #ubuntu-devel
jbaileyogra: Cool, thanks!08:38
jbaileywasabi_: In most mode, the initramfs contains anything you might need for running the system.  dep mode is the detection.  I only actually run evms_activate at boot time is the root volume starts with /dev/evms/ or if you're running lilo.08:39
Mithrandir\sh: that removes tk8.3-dev, but I guess you want that.  (done)08:39
wasabi_Ahh ok08:39
\shMithrandir: yepp...new build-dep somehow08:39
wasabi_That error that evms activate gives about not having a engine lock, is that worth worrying about?08:40
jbaileywasabi_: Look in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/evms08:40
wasabi_I suspect that's just saying that it might be unsafe during the duration it takes evms_activate itself to run08:40
\shMithrandir: thx08:40
jbaileywasabi_: No idea.  Do you have the exact error?  I'd love to feed it through google.08:40
wasabi_No, I can reboot to find it though, basically it's saying it can't write to a lock file in /var08:40
wasabi_which makes sense, as that's teh initramfs08:41
jbaileywasabi_: My testing didn't get much furhter that "Hey it boots if I set my root to /dev/evms/lvm2/Ubuntu/root" =)08:41
sladenogra: do you have the pre-dithered version of that?08:41
wasabi_haha08:41
jbaileywasabi_: If all it needs s a mkdir to make it happy, we should probably do that.08:41
wasabi_is the initramfs ro?08:41
jbaileyNope08:41
wasabi_Hmm. I wonder then weither it's a good idea to trick it like that then08:42
wasabi_Since when / is remounted the lock file is dead.08:42
wasabi_but I don't know if it matters, give me a sec.08:42
jbaileyRight.08:42
sladenogra: I think of Edubuntu being more red (the letter mostly is)... what about picking a slightly more reddish hue?08:42
jbaileyBut if evms copes, then it's fewer bugzilla reports saying that people have scary messages at startup. =)08:42
jbaileyogra: I could take sladen out back and beat him around if you'd like... =)08:43
wasabi_Okay there it is.08:43
wasabi_While an evms client app is running, it creates /var/lock/evms-engine08:43
wasabi_To prevent any other client apps from running, evms_activate is one of those.08:43
wasabi_SO it just complains about not being able to create that lock file.08:43
jbaileywasabi_: So when evms_activate is done it should remove it?08:43
ograsladen, http://www.grawert.net/edubuntu/edusplash.xcf pre dithered and pre blurred08:43
wasabi_Yes.08:43
jbaileySounds like a good candidate for a gratuitous mkdir -p /var/lock08:44
wasabi_Yup08:44
sladenjbailey: i was thinking about suggesting changing the evms startup message to  'Detecting evms partition (if in use)...' to try and make it less scary08:44
wasabi_Actually, no, it doesnt' remove it.08:44
wasabi_It leaves it.08:44
jbaileywasabi_: Hrm08:45
wasabi_I assume it closes it.08:45
jbaileyso is it still using it?08:45
wasabi_let me check!08:45
jbaileyOr is that just something to lock for fun and profit?08:45
jbaileyThanks! =)08:45
wasabi_Yeah, I think it is the former.08:45
wasabi_It should probably clean it up on it's own, but it doesn't.08:45
jbaileythat it's still using it?08:45
jbaileyAh08:45
jbaileyHmmm.08:45
jbaileySo do I put this in the evms script, or have this available for everyone?08:46
jbaileyEveryone, I guess.08:46
wasabi_I dunno. Seems to me that the initramfs should have /var/lock08:46

wasabi_jbailey, in the lvm local-top script, it does some stuff with /dev/mapper/.08:50

bob2hm, I thought it was a gpl version of NX10:20
bob2my mistake10:20
\shok gentlemen...I will go early to bed today...g'night 10:21
Mezbob2, old backports/extras has a lot of issues10:24
Mezbackports are brought into line now10:24
Mezand I'm working on getting extras into line10:24
bob2where's the, er, canonical location for extras?10:25
Mezermmmm....10:25
Mezthere technically isnt one thats open to the public10:25
Mithrandirbob2: well, !M NX is just a compiled perl script.. it can fairly easily be decompiled,.10:26
Mithrandirs/,//10:26
bob2ah10:27
Mezbob2, btw, you can field the complaints on the fourmns10:27
bob2bleh forums10:28
MezYou may not otherwise alter or modify the Software or create a new installer for the Software. 10:29
Mezfrom the Acrobat licence10:30
Mezdoes that count?10:30
bob2How to distribute Adobe Reader software10:30
bob2You may post Adobe Reader software on company intranet sites or local networks. You may also distribute Adobe Reader on a CD or any other physical media as long as you accept the terms and conditions of the electronic Adobe Reader Distribution Agreement.10:30
bob2</paste>10:30
bob2http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/distribute.html appears to be the rules for distirbuting it10:30
MezPlease complete the Adobe Reader distribution request only if you are interested in distributing Adobe Reader software via internal Web site, CD, or other media, or are interested in placing an "Includes Adobe Reader" logo on your printed material. As an alternative, you may want to create a link on your CD directly to the Adobe Reader download page.10:31
Mez"other media!"10:31
Mezcan tecnically be via internet10:31
bob2er10:31
bob2I think they get to define "media"10:32
Mezthey dont though10:32
bob2also10:32
bob2Third-party Web sites are required to link directly to Adobe.com for the download of Adobe Reader software. Hosting the software independently is not permitted.10:32
bob2which explicitly forbids it10:32
Kamionif a local web site counts as media then one could fairly easily argue the extras site does too (but they'd still have to complete the distribution request, and would have to do so on behalf of all their mirrors)10:33
MezKamion: what about in ubuntu ? acroread has been in ubuntu since warty... doesnt that break the same guidelines10:34
bob2warty has 5.010:34
bob2which had a different license, iirc10:34
Kamionright10:35
Kamionand yes, multiverse probably has the same issue10:35
Kamionwhat happens in multiverse is basically sabdfl's call though10:35
azeembob2: I'm pretty sure Debian removed acroread from non-free before 5.0, though10:35
Mezhmmles...10:35
ographlaegel, yup10:35

Mezmultiverse is one of those "gray areas" really10:35
bob2azeem: I can't seem to find the debian-legal discussion atm10:36
bob2Mez: breach of copyright is pretty clear-cut10:36
KamionMez: distinction between components is a matter of policy, not legality10:36
dholbachi'm off - see you guys10:36
Kamionazeem: acroread was removed because we weren't allowed to recompile/relink it to fix a zlib security hole10:36
Kamion(er we == Debian)10:37
azeemah, right10:37
Kamionalthough I think 5.0 was already out then, and apparently had an unacceptable licence, but I don't remember the discussion clearly enough to comment further10:37
MezKamion: yes, I know... but.. as I was saying, multiverse is where the gray area stuff goes (stuff that can be distributed, but not used unless you have the right licence)10:37
MezIIRC10:37
Kamionyou might find it in -private archives10:37
Mezweird that it's been updated to 7 in breezy10:37
Kamiondebian/copyright lied about the licence10:38
Kamionso nobody noticed the change10:38
Kamionhowever as I say it's sabdfl's call10:38
Mezactually, acroread seems to be pulled from marillat10:39
Kamionindeed10:39
Mezah well, i suppose if we're p;ulling things from apt-get.org - might as well pull things from marillat too10:39
Kamionmultiverse pulled stuff from marillat long before it pulled stuff from apt-get.org10:40
Kamionfyi10:40
cogumbreiroi don't know if here is the place to talk, how do I ask to be the manager of Serpentine on launchpad?10:40
Kamioncogumbreiro: #launchpad would probably be a good start10:41
cogumbreirothx Kamion10:41
Kamionnp10:41
Mezfair enough kamion :D I didnt know that10:42
Mezbut... meh10:42
Mezas you said10:42
Mezit's sabdfl's call10:42
Mez:D10:42
MithrandirKamion: Acrobat> Adobe changed the licence of all versions when 5 was released, iirc.10:42
Mithrandirso 4 suddenly got undistributable.10:43
